SOME weeks ago the death of w.
III. Hopkins, a former resident of
Darlington, was announced from
Dakota. Letters afterward reached
Darlington that Will Hopkins, a
son, was suspicioned of the crime
of numbering his father. For a
time, years gone by, Will pursued
the photographing business IN Min
eral Point, where he stood high a5
an industrious, sober young fellow.
His acquslntances here will be glad
to read the following from the
sheriff of Pennington county, OAK,
in reply to a letter Of inquiry from
Darlington editor:
Dear olr-Henry Hopkins was
found dead IN his COW yard with his
neck broken. The verdict of the jury
was that he came TO his death IN a
manner to the jury unknown. Rumor
here does not connect William IN
any way with the death of his
father. Yours truly,
RoBERT boyD, JR.
We trust those who were so eager
TO circulate the rumor will be as
ready TO correct the error, and re-
move the faint of suspiciop which
has been cast upon fair and un-
tarnished name.

society. A Pltiable sight was that
is the vicinity of Jerusalem pump
the other evening; A horse, so poor
in condition that it looked unable
to hold up the harness that was
hung on it, was standing mot with.
out apparent difficulty tied to a
post attached singly to a wagon
which unquestionably was more
than the abused brute was able to
pull around without suffering. The
horse exhibited its state of starva.
tion and want to the extent that it
would WINNER as people passed.
A case like this is disgrace to the
community and owner in particular
and should be stopped at once.
HURLEY, this state, has again been
the scene of most disastrous con.
fiagration, resulting in terrible loss
of life and property. The fire
started on the stage of the Alcazar
theatsr about O'Clock Sunday even
ing and spread so rapidly that in .
few minutes the whole building was
in flames. The element passed from
building to building in quick suc.
cesslon until in a short time the
whole of the business portion of the
town between Third and Fifth
avenues was mass of flames. All
efforts toward stopping their prog
ress were unavailable. A dozen
persons, all employees of the theatre,
perlshed in the flames. Only a
small audience had assembled at the
time; but if the oonflagration had
occurred half an hour later hundreds
of people would no doubt have lost
their lives, as the place was a popu-
lar resort with the miners. The
losses from the fire will aggregate
about 100000. Miss Coates, for
merly miiliner in this city, lost
her dressmaking aud millinery es-
adjustment, estimated at 81 900.
The population of mining town
or center OF supply for miners is
not permanent, but comes and goes
according to the varying measure Of
activity IN the mines. Therefore,
as at Hurley, no proper precautions
are taken against destruction by fire.
The houses are for the most part
lumber, built hurriedly aud Intended
for the present only. No sufficient
regulations are imposed TO guard
against ire, as the construction aud
use of tire Hurley variety theater
show. Undoubtedly Hurley will
have a permanent population com
paratively large, but tue rougher
element is heetng and careless. It
was not TO be expected that regu-
lations in the matter of buildings
would be enforced in this new town
or that means for fighting fire would
be at hand. But now that two large
fires have destroyed vast value, the
business men, permanent or tempor-
airy, should see the economy of
supplying means of fighting fires
and OF preventing the dangers from
theater aud saloon tire-traps.

anu regards comment as unneces-
safy: "One farmer sells cream from
six cows, and two weeks cream
brought him 81. Another sells
milk from the same number of
cows and he realized S23 in one
month" The loss sustained by the
calves and hogs not getting any of
the milk might go far toward ac-
counting for the difference.

weather prognosticator says that we

coast will not be pleasant for boat

From every part of the country
come reports of serious accidents
caused by runaway horses. A horse
given to runaway is more than a
public nuisance. Not only is the
driver in constant danger, but other
teams are often scared and taught
the same bad habit, and children
and pedestrians are frequently ser
iously injured. Such animals should
be marked so that their habits may
be known and great care be taken
in handling them.

its way to a confluence liz the valley

DEMOCRACY OR THE DEVIL.

The Democratic administration seems
bent upon the political task of turning
Republican Dakota oyer to the Democ-
racy or the Devil. Cleveland revoked
the order of his predecessor throwing
open the Winnebago and Crow Greek
reservation AMI hundreds of settlers
were thus made homeless. These SET
tiers we're not only deprived Of their
homes by this revocation, but an order
has been issued to force them from the
country at the point of the bayonet, and
the military has gone forth for that pur-
pose. Sparks, the Democratic commits
sioner of the general land Office, is doing
what he can to harrass the settlers in
other parts of Dakota. He says s. per
cent of them are thieves, and he is pray.
ing for Democratic congress to give
him a big appropriation SO he can en-
ploy detectives to hunt them down
Between the military, which IS acting
under orders issued by a Democratic
secretary of war to sustain an arbitrary
order issued by a Democratic president,
and a Democratic land commissioner
who wants an army of Democratic de-
~tectives to hunt down poor and inoffen-
sive settlers, there is q fair prospect that
the people Of Dakota will be driven to

goes he gun and MIR. Fish floats on the

shot. But the first part of the arrange
mont often takes place without the latter.
There is many a - bang not followed by
the floating fish. On the appearance Of
the fish the spearman, clothed in rubber
boots up to the waist and armed with
something resembling a Neptune's tri-
dent, rushes in and transfxes the game
ere it RECEIVERS and bears it proudly to
the shore. The silent gunner surveys
this performance with great satisfaction,
trated gaze on the water, Rifles are used
and large numbers of fine fish have been
bagged in this novel way. An old res
ident, II who believes in the 'told time''
way of doing things, suggested sharing,
but the pickerel of the "new time'' have
refused to be shared. [By the way, it is
now unlawful to kill these fish,
